MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF HENDERSON CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC.
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 AND 2000
The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition
and results of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, and other financial and
statistical information appearing elsewhere in this report.
Recent Developments
- -------------------
On February 6, 2001, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization to acquire Rusk County Bancshares, Inc. Henderson, Texas
("RCBI"), and its wholly owned indirect banking subsidiary, Peoples State Bank.
Peoples State Bank operates three banking offices in East Texas, one each in
Henderson, Longview and Tatum. Following completion of the transaction, it is
anticipated that Peoples State Bank will be merged into Citizens National Bank.
At December 31, 2000, RCBI reported net income of $599,000 and consolidated
assets of $53.5 million. The acquisition of RCBI will be accounted under the
purchase method of accounting for business combinations, [and is expected to be
accretive to the Company's earnings in the first full year of operations.] Under
the terms of the agreement, all outstanding shares of RCBI common stock
(including shares acquired upon exercise of stock options) will be converted
into $12,550,000 in cash, representing 1.57 times RCBI's books value at December
31, 2000, and 20.95 times 2000 earnings.
The agreement has been approved by the board of directors of both companies. The
acquisition of RCBI, which is subject to conditions usual and customary for
acquisition transactions of this type, including receipt of regulatory approval,
approval of the shareholders of RCBI and satisfaction of other terms and
conditions is expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2001,
although there can be no assurance that the transaction will be completed.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Net income for the first three months of 2001 increased to $963,000 compared to
$895,000 for the same period in 2000. Net interest income for the three months
ended March 31, 2001 was $3,055,000 compared to $2,951,000 for the same period
in 2000. The Company made a provision of $110,000 to the allowance for loan
losses during the first three months of 2001. A provision of $100,000 was made
for loan losses during the same period in 2000. The Company experienced a net
gain on securities transactions of $3,000 in the first three months of 2001
compared to no net gain or loss on securities transactions in the first three
months of 2000. Noninterest income, excluding net gains on securities
transactions, for the first three months of 2001 was $1,563,000 compared to
$1,263,000 for the same period in 2000. Total noninterest expenses for the first
three months of 2001 were $3,388,000 compared to $3,072,000 for the same period
in 2000. Income tax expense for the first three months of 2001 and 2000 was
$160,000 and $147,000, respectively.
Net Interest Income. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, net
-------------------
interest income was $3,055,000 compared to $2,951,000 for the first three months
of 2000. Interest income was up $865,000 during the three months ended March 31,
2001, primarily due to an increase in loan volumes and a slight increase
attributable to rates. Interest expense increased $761,000 due mostly to average
rates paid that were approximately 50 basis points higher in the first three
months of 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000.
Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was
-------------------------
$110,000 for the first three months of 2001 compared to $100,000 for the first
three months of 2000. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Financial
Condition and Results of Operations of the Company--Allowance for Loan Losses"
for more detailed discussion relative to the provision for loan losses.
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income, excluding securities
------------------
gains/losses, was $1,563,000 for the first three months of 2001 as compared to
$1,263,000 in the first three months of 2000. This increase is due to increases
in service charges primarily through an increase in fees collected for
insufficient funds, increases in trust fee income, and increases in insurance
commissions. The Company experienced a net gain on securities transactions of
$3,000 for the first three months of 2001 compared to no net gain or loss on
securities transactions for the first three months of 2000.
10
Noninterest Expenses. Noninterest expenses for the three-month
--------------------
period ended March 31, 2001 were $3,388,000 compared to $3,072,000 during the
same period in 2000. The increase in other expenses is due to the increase in
salary and related benefits expense resulting from normal year-end salary
increases in the current year combined with the continued growth of the Marshall
branch that opened in December of 1999, the acquisition of the Preston Insurance
Agency in April of 2000 and the opening of the Athens branch in December of
2000. Occupancy expenses continue to increase with the addition of new
facilities and the remodeling of existing properties.
Income Taxes. Income tax expense for the first three months of 2001
------------
was $160,000, compared to $147,000 in the same period in 2000. The effective tax
rates for the first three months of 2001 and 2000 were 14.3% and 14.2%. The
effective rates are less than the statutory rate of 34% primarily because of
tax-free income provided from state and municipal bonds, leases and obligations.
Financial Condition
- -------------------
The Company's total assets at March 31, 2001 of $460,547,000 increased from the
total assets at December 31, 2000 of $423,644,000. The Company's loan portfolio
grew slightly to $170,585,000 at March 31, 2001, up from $169,882,000 at
December 31, 2000. Total deposits were $415,868,000 at March 31, 2001, compared
to the December 31, 2000 total of $379,122,000.
Deposits and Other Borrowings
- -----------------------------
Total deposits at March 31, 2001 increased from the December 31, 2000 balances
by $36,746,000. The Athens branch, which opened in December 2000, accounted for
approximately $2,000,000 of this increase. There were also increases to money
market accounts and time deposits as customers took advantage of the tiered
money market account that is indexed to the three-month Treasury bill.
During July 2000, the Company changed from the Treasury Tax and Loan Daily
Remittance Option to the Treasury Tax and Loan Note Option, which allows the
Company to keep on deposit customer tax payments for short periods of time until
withdrawn by the Treasury. At March 31, 2001, amounts payable under this note
totaled $126,000.
Liquidity
- ---------
Liquidity is the ability of the company to fund customers' needs for borrowing
and deposit withdrawals. The purpose of liquidity management is to assure
sufficient cash flow to meet all of the financial commitments and to capitalize
on opportunities for business expansion. This ability depends on the
institution's financial strength, asset quality and types of deposit and
investment instruments offered by the Company to its customers. The Company's
principal sources of funds are deposits, loan and securities repayments,
maturities of securities, sales of securities available for sale and other funds
provided by operations. The Company also has various federal funds sources from
correspondent banks. While scheduled loan repayments and maturing investments
are relatively predictable, deposit flows and early loan and mortgage-backed
security prepayments are more influenced by interest rates, general economic
conditions and competition. The Company maintains investments in liquid assets
based upon management's assessment of (1) need for funds, (2) expected deposit
flows, (3) yields available on short-term liquid assets and (4) objectives of
the asset/liability management program.
Cash and cash equivalents increased $30,616,000 from $25,993,000 at December 31,
2000 to $56,609,000 at March 31, 2001. Cash and cash equivalents represented
12.3% of total assets at March 31, 2001 compared to 6.1% of total assets at
December 31, 2000. This increase was due mainly to an increase in deposits of
$36,746,000. The Company has the ability to borrow federal funds from various
correspondent banks should the Company need to supplement its future liquidity
needs in order to meet deposit flows, loan demand or to fund investment
opportunities. Management believes the Company's liquidity position is strong
based on its level of cash and cash equivalents, core deposits, the stability of
its other funding sources and the support provided by its capital base.
As summarized in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the most significant
transactions that affected the Company's level of cash and cash equivalents,
cash flows and liquidity during the first three months of 2001 were the net
increase in deposits of $36,746,000, securities purchases of $35,571,000 and
securities maturities and repayments of $24,549,000.
Capital Resources
- -----------------
At March 31, 2001, stockholders' equity totaled $40,764,000, or 8.9% of total
assets, compared to $39,122,000, or 9.2% of total assets, at December 31, 2000.
The increase in stockholders' equity is the result of earnings retained and the
change in the net unrealized gain/loss on available for sale securities.
The Company and its Bank subsidiary, Citizens National Bank, are subject to
regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Bank
regulators monitor capital adequacy very closely and consider it an important
factor in ensuring the safety of depositors' accounts. As a result, bank
regulators have established standard risk based capital ratios that measure the
amount of an
11
institutions capital in relation to the degree of risk contained in the balance
sheet, as well as off-balance sheet exposure. Federal law requires each federal
banking regulatory agency to take prompt corrective action to resolve problems
of insured depository institutions including, but not limited to, those that
fall below one or more prescribed capital ratios. According to the regulations,
institutions whose Tier 1 and total capital ratios meet or exceed 6.0% and 10.0%
of risk-weighted assets, respectively, are considered "well capitalized." Tier 1
capital is shareholders' equity excluding the unrealized gain or loss on
securities classified as available for sale and intangible assets. Tier 2
capital, or total capital, includes Tier 1 capital plus the allowance for loan
losses not to exceed 1.25% of risk weighted assets. Risk weighted assets are the
Company's total assets after such assets are assessed for risk and assigned a
weighting factor based on their inherent risk. In addition to the risk-weighted
ratios, all institutions are required to maintain Tier 1 leverage ratios of at
least 5.0% to be considered "well capitalized" and 4.0% to be considered
"adequately capitalized." The leverage ratio is defined as Tier 1 capital
divided by adjusted average assets for the most recent quarter.
The tables below set forth the Consolidated and Citizens Bank only capital
ratios as of March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000.
Consolidated Bank Only
------------ ---------
March 31, 2001
- --------------
Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio 17.4% 17.5%
Total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio 18.5 18.6
Leverage ratio 8.4 8.4
December 31, 2000
- -----------------
Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio 17.5% 17.0%
Total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio 18.6 18.1
Leverage ratio 8.8 8.7
As of March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, Citizens National Bank met the level
of capital required to be categorized as well capitalized under prompt
corrective action regulations. Management is not aware of any conditions
subsequent to March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 that would change the
Company's or the Citizens National Bank's capital categories.
Loans
- -----
The Company's loan portfolio consists primarily of real estate, commercial and
industrial, and consumer loans. Gross loans were $172,950,000 at March 31, 2001
compared to $172,300,000 at December 31, 2000.
As can be seen in the table in Note 3 above, a slight decrease of approximately
2.1% in commercial and industrial loans, an increase of approximately 1.3% in
real estate loans, and an increase of 1.8% in installment loans occurred during
the first three months of 2001. The opening of the Athens branch in December
2000 has contributed to an increase in total loans of approximately $1,715,000.
Allowance for Loan Losses
- -------------------------
The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 was 1.34%
and 1.37% of outstanding loans, respectively. By its nature, the process through
which management determines the appropriate level of the allowance requires
considerable judgment. The determination of the necessary allowance, and
correspondingly the provision for loan losses, involves assumptions about
projections of national and local economic conditions, the composition of the
loan portfolio, and prior loss experience, in addition to other considerations.
As a result, no assurance can be given that future losses will not vary from the
current estimates. However, the allowance at March 31, 2001 represents
management's best estimate of probable losses that have been incurred within the
existing portfolio of loans. A migration analysis and an internal classification
system for loans also help identify potential problems, if any, which are not
identified otherwise. From these analyses, management determines which loans are
potential candidates for nonaccrual status, including impaired loan status, or
charge-off. Management continually reviews loans and classifies them consistent
with the guidelines established by the Office of the Comptroller of Currency to
help ensure that an adequate allowance is maintained.
The provision for loan losses is determined by management as the amount to be
added to the allowance for loan losses after net charge-offs have been deducted
to bring the allowance to a level which is considered adequate to absorb losses
inherent in the loan portfolio. The amount of the provision is based on
management's review of the loan portfolio. The consideration of such factors as
historical loss experience, general prevailing economic conditions, changes in
the size and composition of the loan portfolio and specific borrower
considerations, including the ability of the borrower to repay the loan and the
estimated value of the underlying collateral.
12
The provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2001 totaled
$110,000 compared to $100,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000.
Management anticipates it will continue its provisions to the allowance for loan
losses at current levels for the near future, providing the volume of
nonperforming loans remains insignificant, to compensate for loan growth,
particularly higher risk commercial and installment loans.
Non Accrual, Past Due and Restructured Loans
- --------------------------------------------
The Company's policy is to discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans
whenever it is determined that reasonable doubt exists with respect to timely
collectibility of interest and principal. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status
if either material deterioration occurs in the financial position of the
borrower, payment in full of interest or principal is not anticipated, payment
in full of interest or principal is past due 90 days or more unless well
secured, payment in full of interest or principal on a loan is past due 180 days
or more, regardless of collateral, or the loan in whole or in part is classified
as doubtful. A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of
collection and is either guaranteed or well secured. When a loan is placed on
nonaccrual status, interest is no longer accrued or included in interest income
and previously accrued income is reversed.
During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company restructured a single loan
relationship totaling $1,216,000. The loan customer is a manufacturing company
that was adversely affected by a down turn in the oil and gas market. The
restructured loan is secured by commercial real estate.
The following is a summary of the Company's problem loans as of March 31, 2001
and December 31, 2000.
March 31, December 31,

Concentration of Credit Risk
- ----------------------------
The Company grants real estate, commercial, and industrial loans to customers
primarily in Henderson, Texas, and surrounding areas of east Texas. Although the
Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion (approximately
51.6% at March 31, 2001) of its loans are secured by real estate and its ability
to fully collect its loans is dependent upon the real estate market in this
region. The Company typically requires collateral sufficient in value to cover
the principal amount of the loan. Such collateral is evidenced by mortgages on
property held and readily accessible to the Company. See additional information
related to the composition of the Company's loan portfolio included in Note 3 to
the consolidated financial statements.
Securities
- ----------
The Investment Committee, under the guidance of the Company's Investment Policy,
assesses the short and long-term needs of the Company after consideration of
loan demand, interest rate factors, and prevailing market conditions.
Recommendations for purchases and other transactions are then made considering
safety, liquidity, and maximization of return to the Company. Management
determines the proper classification of securities at the time of purchase.
Securities that management does not intend to hold to maturity or that might be
sold under certain circumstances are classified as available for sale. If
management has the intent and the Company has the ability at the time of
purchase to hold the securities until maturity, the securities will be
classified as held to maturity.
13
The management strategy for securities is to maintain a very high quality
portfolio with generally short duration. The quality of the portfolio is
maintained with 79% of the total as of March 31, 2001 comprised of U.S.
Treasury, federal agency securities, and agency issued mortgage securities. The
collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and mortgage backed securities (MBS)
held by the company are backed by agency collateral which consists of loans
issued by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), Federal National
Mortgage Corporation (FNMA), and the Government National Mortgage Association
(GNMA) with a blend of fixed and floating rate coupons.
Credit risk is minimized through agency backing, however, there are other risks
associated with MBS and CMOs. These other risks include prepayment, extension,
and interest rate risk. MBS are securities that represent an undivided interest
in a pool of mortgage loans. CMOs are structured obligations that are derived
from a pool of mortgage loans or agency mortgage backed securities. CMOs in
general have widely varying degrees of risk, which results from the prepayment
risk on the underlying mortgage loans and its effect on the cash flows of the
security.
Prepayment risk is the risk of borrowers paying off their loans sooner than
expected in a falling rate environment by either refinancing or curtailment.
Extension risk is the risk that the underlying pool of loans will not exhibit
the expected prepayment speeds thus resulting in a longer average life and
slower cash flows than anticipated at purchase. Interest rate risk is based on
the sensitivity of yields on assets that change in a different time period or in
a different proportion from that of current market interest rates. Changes in
average life due to prepayments and changes in interest rates in general will
cause the market value of MBS and CMOs to fluctuate.
The Company's MBS portfolio consists of fixed rate balloon maturity pools with
short stated final maturities and adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) pools with
coupons that reset annually and have longer maturities. Investments in CMOs
consist mainly of Planned Amortization Classes (PAC), Targeted Amortization
Classes (TAC), and sequential classes. As of March 31, 2001, floating rate
securities made up 75% of the CMO portfolio. Support and liquidity classes with
longer average lives and floating rate coupons comprise a relatively small
portion of the portfolio.
To maximize after-tax income, investments in tax-exempt municipal securities are
utilized but with somewhat longer maturities.
Securities are the Company's single largest interest-earning asset representing
approximately 47% of total assets at March 31, 2001. The investment portfolio
totaled $213,975,000 at March 31, 2001, up from $206,938,000 at December 31,
2000. This increase resulted due to excess cash and fed funds being invested in
available for sale securities for increased yields
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
- --------------------------------
The following pronouncements have been issued, and are listed together with the
expected impact on the Company.
SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - This
Statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments, including certain derivatives embedded in other contracts, and for
hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as
either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments
at fair value. The Statement is effective for the Company in the year ending in
2001. Due to the Company's limited use of derivative instruments, the effect of
implementation of this new pronouncement is not expected to have a significant
effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
SFAS 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities--This Statement replaces SFAS 125 and resolves
various implementation issues while carrying forward most of the provisions of
SFAS 125 without change. SFAS 140 revises standards for transfers of financial
assets by clarifying criteria and expanding guidance for determining whether the
transfers of financial assets by clarifying criteria and expanding guidance for
determining whether the transferor has relinquished control and the transfer is
therefore accounted for as a sale. SFAS 140 also adopts new accounting
requirements for pledged collateral and requires new disclosures about
securitization and pledge collateral. SFAS 140 is effective for transfers
occurring after March 31, 2001 and for disclosures relating to securitization
transactions and collateral for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000.
Management does not expect this standard to have a material effect on the
Company's consolidated financial statements.
Corporate Objectives
- --------------------
It is the philosophy of the Company to continue to remain independent in
ownership, to foster its image as the community leader in banking, to increase
its market share through selected acquisitions and aggressive marketing, to
maintain a sound earning-asset portfolio, and to assess liquidity needs while
maximizing its profitability and return to its shareholders.
14
Forward-Looking Information
- ---------------------------
Statements and financial discussion and analysis by management contained
throughout this Form 10-Q that are not historical facts are forward-looking
statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve a number of
risks and uncertainties. Various factors could cause actual results to differ
materially from the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation,
changes in interest rates and economic conditions, increased competition for
deposits and loans adversely affecting rates and terms, changes in availability
of funds increasing costs or reducing liquidity, changes in applicable statutes
and governmental regulations, and the loss of any member of senior management or
operating personnel and the potential inability to hire qualified personnel at
reasonable compensation levels.

Item 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company's primary market risk exposures is interest rate risk and, to a
lesser extent, liquidity risk. The Company does not maintain a trading account
for any class of financial instrument and the Company is not affected by foreign
currency exchange rate risk or commodity price risk.
Interest rate risk is the risk that the Company's financial condition will be
adversely affected due to movements in interest rates. The Company, like other
financial institutions, is subject to interest rate risk to the extent that its
interest-earning assets reprice differently than its interest-bearing
liabilities. The income of financial institutions is primarily derived from the
excess of interest earned on interest-earning assets over the interest paid on
interest-bearing liabilities. A high ratio of interest sensitive liabilities
tends to benefit net interest income during periods of falling interest rates as
the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities declines faster than the
average rate earned on interest-earning assets. The opposite holds true during
periods of rising interest rates. One of the Company's principal financial
objectives is to achieve long-term profitability while reducing its exposure to
fluctuations in interest rates. Management recognizes certain risks are inherent
and that the goal is to measure the effect on net interest income and to adjust
the balance sheet to minimize the risk while at the same time maximize income.
Accordingly, the Company places great importance on monitoring and controlling
interest rate risk.
There are several methods employed by the Company to monitor and control
interest rate risk. One such method is using a simulation model to analyze net
interest income sensitivity to movements in interest rates. The simulation model
projects net interest income based on both an immediate rise or fall in interest
rates (rate shock) over a twelve-month period. The model is based on the actual
maturity and repricing characteristics of interest rate sensitive assets and
liabilities. The repricing can occur due to changes in rates on variable rate
products as well as maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities. The model incorporates assumptions regarding the impact of changing
interest rates on the prepayment rate of certain assets and liabilities as well
as projections for anticipated activity levels by product lines offered by the
Company. The simulation model also takes into account the Company's historical
core deposits. Management considers the Company's market risk to be acceptable
at this time.
One strategy used by the Company to reduce the volatility of its net interest
income is to originate variable rate loans tied to market indices. Such loans
reprice on an annual, quarterly, monthly or daily basis as the underlying market
index change. Currently, approximately 10% of the Company's loan portfolio
reprices on at least an annual basis.
The Company has also structured the securities portfolio so that most of the
mortgage-backed securities reprice on at least an annual basis. The Company also
maintains most of its securities in the available for sale portfolio to take
advantage of changes in interest rates and to maintain liquidity for loan
funding and deposit withdrawals. The mortgage-backed and related securities also
provide the Company with a constant cash flow stream from principal repayments.
The Company invests short-term excess funds in overnight federal funds that
mature and reprice on a daily basis.
The Company's 2000 annual report details a table that provides information about
the Company's financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest
rates as of December 31, 2000. The table is based on information and assumptions
set forth in the discussion. The Company believes the assumptions utilized are
reasonable. Management believes that no events have occurred since December 31,
2000 which would significantly change the ratio of rate sensitive assets to rate
sensitive liabilities for the given time horizons in the table.
